Chrysler 4238570 Seal-Wheel Hub

Oil leaks frequently occur due to wear of the driveaxle oil seals or the speedometer pinion drive gear 0-ring. Replacement of the seals is relatively easy, as repairs can usually be performed without removing the transaxle from the vehicle. The driveaxle oil seals are located at the sides of the transaxle, where the driveaxles are attached. If leakage at the seal is suspected, raise the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands. If the seal is leaking, lubricant will be found on the sides of the transaxle. Remove the driveaxle(s) and, using a screwdriver or prybar, carefully pry the oil seal out of the transaxle bore. If the oil seal can't be removed with these tools, a special oil seal removal tool will be required. Using a large section of pipe or a large deep socket as a drift, install the new oil seal, driving it into the bore squarely and ensuring it's completely seated. Apply multi-purpose grease to the seal lip before installing the driveaxle, taking care not to damage the lip of the new seal. The speedometer cable and extension housing is located on the transaxle housing; look for lubricant around the cable housing to determine if the 0-ring is leaking. Remove the speedometer drive pinion and replace the 0-ring.
